Hi.

I'm new at this and looking to copy my first DVD. I've been doing DIVX rips with Gknot, and playing with DVD for a while now. Just got my A05..

I am wondering why could we not pull the audio and video out of the VOB's and remaster the movie? Wouldn't that take care of a lot of the Ifoedit problems? Shouldn't we be able to split large movies this way as well and get reliable 2 DVD split's?

Also, I am wondering how to remove the menu's from the DVD, and I have seen quite a few posts about this referring people to:

http://www.doom9.org/mpg/ifoedit-menustripping.htm

But I don't see anything in that guide that would get rid of the menu. Am I missing someting?

Thanks!

I've done many DVDs with out re-encoding. I used SmartRipper to demux just the movie. Demux to video and ac3 files. I use the capture function in my player to do a capture of the menus. I use spruceup to setup menus using the captured menus and put the movie on one or two DVD-R. It's not a copy of the DVD but you get the video un-changed with ac3.

That sounds exactly what I am trying to do.

what software do you use to:

1) Split the .m2v and .ac3 at the right place (is there any fixup needed at this point)?

2) Reencode (master?) them into VOB's

3) Burn them to DVD?

Thanks!

Smart Ripper with demux the file to m2v and ac3 files. Sometimes you may have to run ac3fix on the ac3 file, but times it's OK. You can also select all or part of the movie to demux, to keep it under the 4GB size limit for DVD-R. Spruceup will make the menus and create the VOB files. You must make both file names the same so when you load xxxx.m2v, spruceup will automatically load xxxx.ac3. When I have everything setup the way I want it and test, I write to a fileset on the harddrive and use nero to burn the DVD-R.

Pharmboy,

If you want your movie to start when you put your disc in your standalone player without seeing any menus, you can do this very easy in ifoedit. I do it with every movie. Open up ifoedit and down at the bottom is create ifo's. Load your first movie file into it and it will give you the video_ts.ifo and .bup file along with vts_01_0.ifo & .bup. From there you must place one of these ifo files back into ifoedit and get new vts sectors. put all these files in the video_ts folder and do whatever you do next for burning. I personally create an img file and burn with decrypter. I have 3 programs total to burn my movies under 4.36 gb's. It takes me about an hour per movie from rip to burn.

Well, I managed to split the vobs with vobedit, demux the stream with ifoedit, and remaster the dvd with maestro.

Now I just gotta figure what I'm doing wrong with the chapter points. I can't import the chapter list created with ChapterXtractor, so I tried to enter them manually and it seemed like they should have worked, but for some reason the player said it was on chapter 3 when the movie started.

Oh well, so much to learn

Thanks everyone!

Merry Christmas,
PharmBoy
